Fortunately, the Milk...

The greatest ever book title. The greatest artist-writer team. Genius from the 2010 Carnegie victors. You may remember Neil Gaiman and Chris Riddell from their massive Carnegie Medal winner The Graveyard Book. If not, we hope you’ve at least seen Neil Gaiman’s awesome Doctor Who episodes. (We loved them.) Now this epic pair return with a new book that’s all about – you guessed it – buying a pint of milk. The most-wanted fantasy of the year: a time-travelling dinosaur, a pirate queen and the famed jewel known as the Eye of Splod. Plus Chris Riddell’s awesome drawings, of course!

Recent reviews

This book will loved by all children who think that their parents don’t tell them the truth about many things because they think the children are too young to understand. What makes this book so amazing is how a routine activity like buying milk could turn out to be such an adventure!!!!! Anyone who likes science fiction and fantasy along with some great humor should read this book.
